Is anybody really seeing a difference in Hygienic's?  I have tried several
Hygienic queens and no differences to speak of in my yards?  I know it's a
big seller,  but is anyone seeing real results?

Hi Bill and All

I buy my queen cells from a local producer who uses the pin prick  
method that he learned from his father, a former researcher with Ag  
Canada in Alberta.  The OBA Tech Transfer Program uses liquid  
nitrogen.  Both are in the area of Guelph Ont and both swear by their  
method(s)
